Default Dynaspark Instructions needed

I have had a Dynaspark stored for the last 4 years in case my opti spark went out, it is starting to fail after checking system. I can't find the instructions as I am not sure where to hook up the inlet lead for the air tube on the top. The bottom one hooks up to the vaccum line with a "T". This is on a '93. I wonder what the newer opti's hooked to on a 95 and 96 with the vaccum lines or pictures of it or a part to use from the newer ones to install on mine.

Thanks, that was what I needed so I could properly do the job. I did see another post on another forum about running the inlet air line inside under the dash so as not to draw as much moisture into the unit, sounds like that would be a good idea.

Fresh air - make a small hole in the ducting after the air cleaner and before the throttle body.

Vaccum - Add a T near the vaccum for the egr selenoid.

These were not in the instructions from DynaSpark - I have to find a 94 to see where the vaccum and fresh air supplies were.

.
Be advised:

If you are spraying nitrous into the intake, this is not a good idea.

I have mine drawing all the way from inside the cabin of the car (underneath the dash 'kick plate')

Hopefully the dynaspark you have stored is one of the 'old' designs and not the new 'bastardized' dynaspark after the company was sold.
